St. Patrick School

I moved to the computer lab 6 years ago and have finally found my niche. When I came to the lab there were old computers, tables falling down, and a projector that was not stationary. Since then the PTO has purchased and remodeled the computer lab to my specs, the region has purchased new computers and server. I have been able, along with the PTO and a grant I received, to secure LCD projector that is permanently attached to the ceiling.
